        !             2: If the answer to your LON-CAPA problem is
        !             3: \begin{quote}
        !             4: $2x^{2}+6x+\frac{4}{3}$
        !             5: \end{quote}
        !             6: You can enter any of the following:

        !             8: \item \begin{verbatim}2x^2+6x+4/3\end{verbatim}
        !             9: \item \begin{verbatim}2*x^2+6*x+4/3\end{verbatim}
        !            10: \item \begin{verbatim}2(x^2+3x+2/3)\end{verbatim}
        !            11: \item or any other equation that is equivalent to the answer
        !            12: \end{itemize}
        !            13: 
        !            14: However, if the answer to your LON-CAPA problem has more than one

        !            16: \begin{quote}
        !            17: $2xy+3x$
        !            18: \end{quote}
        !            19: You will need to enter the {*} for all implied multiplication, for
        !            20: example:

        !            24: \end{itemize}
        !            25: The computer can figure out that 2x is 2{*}x because it is a number
        !            26: times a letter, but it can't tell if xy is a two letter variable or
        !            27: if it is x{*}y.
        !            28: 
        !            29: If your answer is:
        !            30: \begin{quote}
